  1. Fly Fish Amazon - Golden Dorado fishing, in general, is something special. But according to FishingMunk.com, fishing a remote freestone stream where the Amazon merges with the Andean hardwoods pushes this tour from special to extraordinary. Dad will spend four nights at a lodge near the Chimán Indian village, fishing rivers inhabited by two different Dorado species and other fish from the Amazon basin, such as the Pirapitinga or Amazon Pacu and the Yatorana. https://www.frontierstravel.com/tsimane-secure-agua-negra-lodge
